my solution sounds easy: use the latest version from repository (0.10.3), which brings an OpenGLES support and several bugfixes for the ES version.
but I had to make some minor changes to avoid compilation errors.
It also depends on Qt4.6, so I had to figure out how to get the whole stuff working ;-)

There are still some problems with text output in the application, I guess I know where the error is, I'll try to fix it later,
but now I am reading howto package a whole deb with menu icon etc, and then I'll upload it.

What's the advantage of putting stellarium into garage?
